One study from University College London found a correlation between coastal living and poorer midlife health. However, two British birth cohorts found no evidence of added health burden from a coastal childhood.

The studies do not yet specify what factors might cause this difference. It is also unclear whether the findings apply to all coastal regions or specific ones.
